Golden State Of Mind I really hope that the Kings move to SJ.

Why? I'm sick of this stupid owner who just wants to make as much money as possible. I love my Dubs, but nobody in managemebt gives a damn about the fans. They're just going to try and get close to being decent so that fans buy tickets, at prices WAY too high, so that they spend as little money as possible, while forcing us to spend more than we should for garbage. I know most people here hate Marc Cuban, but I'm pretty sure that everybody here would love to have him own the team instead of this idiot Cohan. Cuban actually likes to watch basketball, and money doesn't concern him at all. He would do whatever it takes to win, and the Warriors need someone like that in the FO.

 

At least the Maloof brothers actually care about the Kings. I'm from San Jose, and if the Kings were to move here, I'd most likely support them until some changes happen in the Warriors front office.

Bright Side Of The Sun Warriors fan here. Would you guys be open to this trade?

Well, I'm just going to copy and paste a recent post that I made on GSoM.

Alright, I was reading today's Chat with Chad Ford, which can be found here, and Chad Ford said that the Phoenix Suns are very interested in Brandan Wright or Anthony Randolph, and Monta Ellis/Andris Biedrins. While I would love to keep all of those players here, I would rather have a superstar like Amare. Chad Ford stated that the only thing missing for a trade like that to occur, would be a significant expiring contract, which the Warriors have none of. For a trade like this to occur, the Warriors would have to find a third team that would be interested in Corey Maggette or Stephen Jackson, that would send expiring contracts to Phoenix.

 

My example of a trade like this would be found here. I know this isn't a likely scenario, but I think it may be possible. Portland gets some nice bench pieces, and maybe even a starter if they want to start Barbosa, and they get something for the RLEC. Phoenix gets young players and an expiring contract, Golden State would probably have to throw in a future pick, and Golden State would get Amare.


Personally, if the Warriors had to trade either Monta or Biedrins to get a superstar like Amare, I would prefer trading Monta. I mean, I love Monta and all, but bigs are much harder to replace. Just look at this year's draft, look at the point guards that it's loaded with. The Warriors could get the number 13/14 pick and still end up with a quality point. Bigs are much harder to come by, and personally, I think that Monta is much easier to replace than Biedrins. Look at all the years it took for us to find a good center. Pretty much since the drought started. I'm only 15, so I'm not completely sure on the last sentence, but even as an eight year old, I hated having to watch Dampier and Foyle. I love Monta, but he is definitely more expendable than Biedrins.

 

What do you guys think of this? Do you think it's a fair trade? Would you guys be open to this idea? How would you improve it?

So, basically, post your thoughts on that deal, and post your own deal. Please let it make sense.

GSoM not included? What the hell is going on here? I wonder why we weren't included in this.

Golden State Of Mind Trade for either Lebron James or Chris Bosh or Chris Paul or Deron Williams or Dwight Howard or Kobe Bryant

Lebron is on his way out and the Caveliers should just get whatever they can for him before the time is up. I'm not sure if the contracts work, but I think Stephen Jackson for Lebron and a few first round picks would be fair.

Then, once you are done with that, trade Brandon Wright for Dwight Howard. Brandan Wright has a very high ceiling and he might be the next Tayshaun Prince. Dwight Howard also doesn't have anyone with skill surrounding him so he's be happy to come the Warriors.

The next piece of the puzzle is to send out Crawford and bring in Bosh. Toronto might be reluctant to do this because of Crawford's contract, but if we put in Watson, I think we might have a deal.

 

Then, take your pick: Chris Paul or Deron Williams. I'd choose Chris Paul, trade Azubuike and Maggete for Paul. New Orleans is in need for some depth, and with the emergence of pargo, Paul is expendable. If you want to do it for Williams, it's because Buike is basically a smaller version of AK47. Throw in Kurz for a few first rounders if you want.

 

Then you bring in Biedrins off the bench and you have a lineup that looks something like:

 

C - Dwight Howard/Andris Biedrins

PF - Chris Bosh/Ronny Turiaf

SF - Lebron James/Anthony Randolph

SG - Monta Ellis/Anthony Morrow

PG - Chris Paul/ DeMarcus Nelson

 

I think these trade will help all teams. I would see the Warriors as a possible top 5 team. Pull the trigger Rowell!!!

Golden State Of Mind It's been making me mad for a while now.

Some of you guys are extremely negative way too quick. You guys think that a guy sucks before even seeing him play enough.

Silver And Black Pride Source: Raiders owner Davis making moves to start process of replacing Kiffin

Link over here. Finally. Maybe they can find a replacement so the team can go back to playing football and not worry about whether or not they are going to have the same head coach next week. I for one think Ryan is going to get the nod for head coach, but I hope Davis can convince someone like Bill Cowher or Brian Billick to take the job and leave Ryan as the defensive coordinator.
